| dholbach | bryceh, tjaalton, RAOF: there's a bunch of X related stuff on http://qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/ - just wanted to let you know | 08:34 |
| dholbach | can an archive admin please process the open syncs? | 08:38 |
| bryceh | dholbach, hmm, I paged through that but didn't see anything, just a few sync requests? | 08:38 |
| dholbach | bryceh: yeah, I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to sync that stuff from experimental so I thought I'd leave that to you guys | 08:39 |
| bryceh | dholbach, the titles for those sync requests indicate they're sync'd from unstable, which should be just fine | 08:40 |
| bryceh | dholbach, even for experimental that'd probably be fine | 08:40 |
| dholbach | bryceh: oh sorry, then it was some sync request last week I think | 08:40 |
| bryceh | ah yes | 08:41 |

| ricotz | slomo, https://edge.launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/staging/+sourcepub/1229696/+listing-archive-extra | 08:57 |
| ricotz | this package still misses some installation scripts out of the gtk package | 08:58 |
| slomo | yes, all these scripts are the most work ;) | 08:58 |
| slomo | the package names look good btw | 08:58 |
| ricotz | slomo, i know, but for now there is where my knowledge ends to properly update it, would take me much more time to go through it than for you :( | 09:01 |

| pitti | StevenK, lool: is hildon-desktop something that we still actually want/need in maverick? it hasn't been updated since karmic, and not a lot since hardy | 09:15 |
| pitti | StevenK, lool: same question for libosso (not updated since hardy) | 09:16 |
| lool | pitti: It certainly has "diminishing returns" | 09:17 |
| pitti | we could sync them from Debian, or remove them | 09:18 |
| lool | pitti: It's not used in any of our images anymore, and the version we had was patched in a very complex way | 09:18 |
| lool | So in theory we have some nice patches in there, but the changes are complex to look at | 09:18 |
| pitti | those are part of Colin's "stale merges" list | 09:18 |
| lool | Yes, guessed that, I saw it too and was scared | 09:18 |
| lool | I wouldn't mind a sync personally; people can extract the patches from older source packages if they really want them | 09:19 |
| pitti | so they weren't appropriate for upstream, etc? | 09:20 |
| pitti | seb128: wrt. the "stale merges" list, I'm looking at libgtop2 | 09:24 |
| seb128 | pitti, ok, it's basically a can sync one I think, but there is no interest change so we went "who cares" until now | 09:24 |
| seb128 | pitti, but if you feel like versions should be updated feel free ;-) | 09:24 |
| pitti | it's a new upstream series now (2.28) | 09:24 |
| pitti | seb128: yes, better to keep in sync IMHO | 09:25 |
| seb128 | well we are mostly in sync I think | 09:25 |

| geser | Could an archive admin please kill default-jdk-builddep from the NBS list. default-jdk-builddep got renamed to gcj-native-helper (which still provides default-jdk-builddep) and the stale deb prevents that packages build-depending on it can't currently get build.

| geser | and as long the stale default-jdk-builddep deb is in the archive, any package build-depending on default-jdk-builddep can't get build as the buildd try to install the stale default-jdk-builddep and fail because of depends | 10:20 |

| apw | cjwatson, so it is ... bah thanks | 12:13 |
| cjwatson | apw: a plymouth splash is not required, though | 12:13 |
| cjwatson | important distinction, plymouth doesn't imply a splash screen | 12:13 |
| apw | cjwatson, but presumably if its there, it will VT switch | 12:14 |
| apw | as even without 'splash' X is on 7 | 12:14 |
| apw | (but hearing you) | 12:14 |
| cjwatson | apw: I don't recall for certain, but I think that it only VT-switches when showing the splash | 12:14 |
| cjwatson | X does its own chvt if it needs to | 12:15 |
| dupondje | seb128: can't test more atm, as i'm on another computer atm :) but ah well, if its getting fixed we are happy :) | 12:15 |
| apw | cjwatson, ahh hrm | 12:15 |
| dupondje | you can for sure see it triggers apport lol, all those duplicate bugs | 12:15 |
| cjwatson | apw: you can boot without the 'splash' argument to test | 12:15 |
| apw | yeah i think that is working and telling me i am broken | 12:15 |

| smoser | ok. so i'm looking at bug 43574. which says xinetd should be an upstart job. what upgrade cases do i need to handle ? If i add xinetd.upstart and it gets pulled in, do I need to attempt to read the previous defaults/xinetd.conf? | 18:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 43574 in xinetd (Ubuntu) "Needs Ubuntu-style init script" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/43574 | 18:02 |
| smoser | per upstart design, the upstart doc, should not read /etc/defaults/xinetd.conf . but if i ignore it, and move the existing /etc/init.d/xinetd to an upstart job, then the xinetd server may then start with different options for a user who had modified xinetd.conf | 18:03 |
| slangasek | smoser: while there's no policy that requires you to continue honoring /etc/default when converting from sysvrc to upstart, I consider it bad form to not do so in some fashion | 18:03 |
| smoser | er... who had modified default/xinetd.conf | 18:03 |
| slangasek | dholbach: yep, I'm ready :) | 18:04 |
| smoser | slangasek, so what would you recommend ? i surely dont want to modify etc/init/xinetd.conf based on contents of /etc/defaults/xinetd . should I just source it if it exists, generally honor the old behavior but not lay a new one down | 18:05 |
| smoser | ? | 18:05 |
| slangasek | smoser: source if it exists, but set sensible defaults within the upstart job itself; don't ship the defaults file in the new package; on upgrade, remove /etc/defaults/xinetd iff it's unmodified, using the standard conffile runes for this | 18:06 |
| smoser | slangasek, thanks. | 18:06 |
| smoser | and i think dh_installinit does most of that. | 18:06 |
| slangasek | it doesn't help you with any of that, AFAIK :) | 18:07 |
| slangasek | oh, and the standard runes for obsolete conffiles move the file aside if it's modified, so you have to take care not to do that | 18:07 |

| smoser | in "upstarting" a daemon, should i basically ditch the pidfile ? | 19:24 |
| smoser | and instead just rely on upstart to track it. | 19:25 |
| slangasek | smoser: upstart doesn't care about pidfiles; I wouldn't include anything in the upstart job to specifically create / manage one | 19:32 |
| slangasek | smoser: perhaps you want to come to the 'authoring upstart jobs' session at 2000 UTC? :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek | 19:33 |
| smoser | indeed i would | 19:33 |
| smoser | slangasek, well, the reason i asked aobut pidfiles is that xinetd kills with sigquit, not sigkill in the existing init.d script. | 19:34 |
| smoser | so i thought i'd kill similarly in pre-stop | 19:34 |
| smoser | but needed to determine pid | 19:34 |
| slangasek | kills what? | 19:35 |
| slangasek | you should definitely not be killing the xinetd process in pre-stop | 19:35 |
| smoser | hm... ok. | 19:36 |
| smoser | kills the xinetd daemon | 19:37 |
| slangasek | yeah, don't do that. | 19:37 |
| smoser | i thought of doing that per man page: | 19:37 |
| smoser | pre-stop ... | 19:37 |
| smoser | It is typically used to send any necessary shutdown commands to the main process... | 19:38 |
| slangasek | smoser: upstart sends sigterm, waits, then sends sigkill. As long as xinetd handles TERM sensibly, you don't need any other special handling | 19:39 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, hi | 19:40 |
| smoser | hm... so with xinetd , as i'm reading its man page, sigquit quits the daemon. sigterm takes all running servers, then quits | 19:40 |
| smoser | so if i can't deliver a sigquit, i'll be changing behavior. and a stop to inetd would kill all its sub-servers. | 19:40 |
| slangasek | well, you /can/ send -QUIT in pre-stop. I'm not sure which behavior should be considered correct | 19:41 |
| slangasek | or what happens if xinetd receives the -TERM while the -QUIT handler is still running | 19:41 |
| smoser | how would i send -quit ? with kill ? | 19:41 |
| slangasek | yes | 19:41 |
| smoser | right. its going to be busted anyway | 19:41 |
| slangasek | busted? | 19:42 |
| smoser | busted as in different behavior than before | 19:42 |
| smoser | as i undertsand it, if you were using the /etc/init.d script, and someone had started a long running ftp download that was initiated via xinetd | 19:42 |
| smoser | and you did /etc/init.d/xinetd stop | 19:42 |
| smoser | the ftp download would continue | 19:43 |
| slangasek | correct | 19:43 |
| smoser | but with upstart if the TERM is sent, it will be gone | 19:43 |
| slangasek | yes | 19:43 |
| smoser | and we can't think of a way to keep the old behavior | 19:43 |
| slangasek | yes we can | 19:43 |
| smoser | ok, then i missed something | 19:43 |
| slangasek | 11:41 < slangasek> well, you /can/ send -QUIT in pre-stop. I'm not sure which behavior should be considered correct | 19:44 |
| slangasek | if that's the behavior you want, that's the way to do it | 19:44 |
| smoser | well right. but then the sigterm is going to come through after pre-stop exits | 19:44 |
| smoser | so i must be missing how you're suggesting to send -QUIT | 19:44 |
| slangasek | no, I'm suggesting that you should make sure xinetd's signal handlers are correct | 19:45 |
| smoser | yeah, i am confused. | 19:45 |
| smoser | sorry for killing your imte on this. | 19:45 |
| smoser | i dont necissarily care what is "correct" | 19:46 |
| smoser | more concerned with what is consistent | 19:46 |
| smoser | and consistent is sending a single SIGQUIT | 19:46 |
| slangasek | you don't have that choice | 19:46 |
| slangasek | you need to make sure xinetd's signal handlers are correct instead | 19:46 |
| slangasek | and that a -TERM after -QUIT won't cause the subprocesses to be killed | 19:46 |
| slangasek | anyway, here's the script you want: | 19:47 |
| slangasek | pre-stop script | 19:47 |
| slangasek | kill -QUIT $(status | awk 'stop\/pre-stop/ { print $NF }') | 19:48 |
| slangasek | end script | 19:48 |
| smoser | well, yes. which is what i was initially going to try, but my guesss is that sigterm is going to come right after that and xinetd will then take out all the servers. | 19:49 |
| smoser | and i somewhat would consider it incorrect if it didn't do that | 19:50 |
| smoser | but oh wel. | 19:50 |
| smoser | thanks for your time sla | 19:50 |
| smoser | slangasek, | 19:50 |
| slangasek | why would that be incorrect? | 19:50 |
| slangasek | if the process has already been told to exit without killing servers, why should a later signal telling it to kill the servers override that? | 19:51 |
| smoser | same question can be asked in reverse. if a process has been told to quit and kill the servers, why would it not do so? | 19:54 |
| smoser | but i'll look | 19:55 |
| slangasek | because it was already told to exit without killing the servers, and shouldn't have been around to receive that signal at all except that there's a race condition! :) | 19:56 |
| smoser | well thats a very good point | 19:56 |
| smoser | :) | 19:56 |
| smoser | thanks again | 19:57 |
| slangasek | sure :) | 19:57 |

| ari-tczew | notice from me: I'm not impatient. just my merge has latest upload by slangasek and I want to got sponsorship by slangasek, so I think that ask slangasek for sponsoring my patch is accurate. | 22:38 |
| Laney | I don't think it's a problem if a package is regularly touched by a person | 22:39 |
| Laney | as they are likely to be interested in it | 22:39 |
| ari-tczew | Laney: I don't understand? | 22:39 |
| Laney | which part? | 22:40 |
| ari-tczew | [23:39] <Laney> I don't think it's a problem if a package is regularly touched by a person | 22:40 |
| ari-tczew | what do you mean? that I shouldn't touch a package? | 22:40 |
| Laney | no | 22:41 |
| Laney | that asking isn't a problem in that situation | 22:41 |
| ari-tczew | ah | 22:42 |
| ari-tczew | okay, got it | 22:42 |
| === fta_ is now known as fta | ||
| slangasek | ari-tczew: this branch doesn't appear to have used bzr merge-package? | 22:53 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: so it doesn't show up as an actual merge of the Debian package changes | 22:54 |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: I don't like to use this method. In bug you'll see diff ubuntu-to-ubuntu. | 22:57 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: if you're going to provide a branch, it should be a branch that can be merged without losing information | 22:58 |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: which informations are be losing? | 22:59 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: the bzr revision history for the Debian uploads | 23:00 |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: should do I merge with this branch? https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/debian/squeeze/slang2/squeeze | 23:01 |
| ari-tczew | then we should see a diff debian-to-ubuntu | 23:01 |
| ari-tczew | ? | 23:01 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/Merging gives a branch that is the result of merging the Debian branch into the Ubuntu branch, with full bzr history, and can be diffed against both the Debian and Ubuntu branches as needed | 23:03 |
| * tumbleweed hates UDD (bzr) for merging new versions from Debian. It requires a lot of work to see exactly what's going on | 23:03 | |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: in this case I think that my method is enough. what's the decission? | 23:05 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: I will not commit a merge that discards bzr history | 23:05 |
| * micahg should try UDD again for my next merge | 23:06 | |
| slangasek | if you're not following the UDD merge process, it doesn't make sense why you would push a branch at all instead of just providing a debdiff? | 23:06 |
| maco | how do you get on the list of people who get merge proposal emails anyway? | 23:07 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: I've re-done the merge locally with your changelog entry now and will commit that | 23:08 |
| ari-tczew | debdiff in bzr is like a new patch viewer | 23:08 |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: and without my key signed? | 23:08 |
| slangasek | key signed? | 23:08 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: I scripted most of a udd-grab-merge (not that it's hard). But kept running into udd branches that were out of date | 23:09 |
| slangasek | maco: hmm, I guess that's answered somewhere in the ubuntu-devel thread james_w drove? | 23:09 |
| ari-tczew | slangasek: -- name surname <e-mail@adress> date -R | 23:09 |
| slangasek | ari-tczew: that's included in the changelog entry I used | 23:10 |
| ari-tczew | aha | 23:10 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: need help finishing it? | 23:10 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: s/need/want | 23:10 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: this is what I was using: http://paste.ubuntu.com/462711/ | 23:11 |
| tumbleweed | (i.e. not much) | 23:11 |
| tumbleweed | the big issue I'be been seeing recently is 3.0 (quilt) interacting badly with bzr. People can't see that their merge will generate an auto-quilt-patch | 23:13 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: maybe file a bug against the udd project | 23:14 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: it's not udd's fault. rather, something that's hard to see unless you test building a source package | 23:15 |
| ari-tczew | going to asleep, bye | 23:16 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: maybe it could get documented at least so people are aware | 23:16 |
| Laney | how is that a problem of udd/bzr? | 23:18 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: yeah. Oh, re the outdated udd branch problem, I guess the best solution is to run rmadison in udd-grab-merges and throw an error if a branch is out of date | 23:19 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: it's not a problem with udd/bzr, but with a workflow that doesn't involve generating source packages that get read / diffed | 23:19 |
| tumbleweed | they'd be obvious if the merge was in debdiff format (although even then people miss them) | 23:20 |
| Laney | isn't there a lintian warning for this? | 23:21 |
| tumbleweed | Ubuntu mergers read lintian output? :) | 23:22 |
| Laney | I would expect uploaders to | 23:22 |
| Laney | anyway it was an actual question: I don't know if there is one | 23:22 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: doesn't appear to be | 23:25 |
| Laney | it's along the lines of the patch system but changes in diffgz one | 23:25 |
| Laney | 3.0-quilt-but-debian-changes | 23:26 |
| tumbleweed | I find it a big misfeature in 3.0 (quilt) I'd prefer an error to an auto-generated patch. But I can understand why it's like that :/ | 23:28 |
| Laney | it matches the historical behaviour of dpkg-source | 23:29 |
| tumbleweed | yup. What's really fun is when it generates an anti-patch, reversing one of the quilt patches | 23:32 |
